The boat crew were great!! We had a good time, the only negative thing is fireworks were like 5 minutes. But that has nothing to do with them as they are put on by the Hilton(I believe). We had a great time on the way out and in. Thank you!!

Fantastic experience!!! Cpt Chad, Jeremy, Dylan and Eve were the perfect stewards for one of the coolest things I’ve done in my life. Swimming with hundreds of fish in the open ocean was a surreal experience. Totally beginner friendly. I cannot recommend this enough. 10/10 cannot recommend enough.

Easy experience make sure you’re there on time . Easy to park, parking was close by and a short walk less than 5 minutes. I went on a rainy day in November we were still able to snorkel but only saw one type of fish and there were no turtles maybe becuase of the weather.i still had fun swimming and jumping off the boat . They also offer the other sports /kayaking and paddle boarding for more $
